In Corpus Cognitio, I reject the reductive dichotomy that has historically partitioned the female intellect from the female body. This work is not merely a composition; it is an active defiance. By merging the visceral heat of the chest—represented through explosive, volcanic fields of cadmium red and orange—with the cold, skeletal logic of silver neurological pathways, I map a new anatomical reality. Here, the chest is the locus of cognition, and the mind is an extension of the heart’s untamed rhythm.
The inclusion of Zambian rubies, emeralds, and amethyst acts as my signature of permanence within this emotional turbulence. These minerals are not ornaments; they are petrified thoughts—mined from the subconscious, crystallized into evidence of a complex, sovereign intellect. This series, INNER ME, is my attempt to reclaim the body as a fortress of absolute, embodied intelligence, where the supposed 'gap' between 'brain' and 'breast' is revealed to be a structural fiction.
